    Anne has a wealth of knowledge about early American history. She intertwines that with interesting stories about individual houses, women, & situations. She has thoroughly researched what she enthusiastically shares. She is flexible accommodating is her audience. Always open to questions. She is a great communicator, able to verbally convey a picture of the times & the role of women in the culture. Anne’s enthusiasm is contagious & the presentation is very engaging & enjoyable.
